So, as we’ve all seen, the sparrows felt the need to turn my truck into a bird mansion of sorts. I quickly thwarted their plans, and removed them from my truck just as gently as possible and released them into their natural habitat. Since then I’ve made sure to keep my windows up when I park in my driveway.
Well, apparently the sparrows weren’t all to happy with me. Keep in mind that I’ve been living at my house for almost 2 years now. There are no tree’s that overhang my driveway, and no nests around (except for that robbin’s nest that i tore down in my garage early this spring) I have never noticed an abnormal amount of bird doody (keeping it PG for the younger readers) on my truck. Until a couple of days ago that is…..
You may not be able to tell from the smaller pictures (click to see larger versions) but apparently the sparrows were not happy, and now neither am I. Perhaps it’s time I invest in a Red Ryder.
In the previous post I showed pictures of Cedar Falls being sand bagged and under water. As the water starts to recess where do the sand bags go? Do we need to assemble another team of super workers and haul em back to the dump?
I have added boat pictures (mostly so Brian will stop complaining about only seeing my console, or a 4 foot section of my boat at a time) I’m almost content, however I went to wire my fish finder only to discover that it no longer turns on. Guess I should have put the cover on the boat before the last rain
Another boat note, I have successfully launched and trailered my boat by myself. Not to say it went smoothly, but there has got to be a way to do it with out getting so damn wet.
Took this pictures in the checkout lane at Hy-Vee. Apparently someone had a change of heart and decided having soft stools is less important than being embarrassed.
I made an attempt to mow the back 40 the other day only to realize that the Mad Max Tractor wouldn’t start. Apparently it doesn’t like sitting out in the rain either. (Needed a new Starter Solenoid $9.99 at your local farm and fleet)
No good information or breaking news for you. Just thought I’d let you know I posted a few pictures I took while sandbagging downtown Cedar Falls, Iowa yesterday.
